US President Joe Biden will meet virtually Friday with fellow G7 leaders and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy "to continue coordinating our efforts to support Ukraine and hold Russia accountable for its war", the White House announced Thursday, CNN reports.

"One year ago, this group came together, just mere hours after Russian tanks rolled into Ukraine, to impose unprecedented costs on Putin and his cronies," White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters Thursday. "We've worked together to provide Ukraine with the security, economic, economic and budget, humanitarian, and energy assistance it needs."

"The G7 has become an anchor of our strong and united response to Russia," Jean-Pierre added. "Tomorrow, the leaders will discuss how we continue supporting Ukraine, and continue to increase pressure on Putin and all those who enable his aggression."
